Maple Gold Mines Ltd. (“Maple Gold” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: MGM, OTCQB: MGMLF; Frankfurt: M3G – http://www.commodity-tv.net/c/search_adv/?v=298248) has created a new 3D geological and structural model for its Douay gold project, located on the prolific Casa Berardi Deformation Zone near Val d’Or, Quebec. The Douay deposit currently contains 2,759,000 ounces Au in the inferred category and a further 479,000 ounces Au indicated using a 0.45 g/t Au cut-off grade (Micon 2018)[1]. The Micon 2018 resource does not include the new drill data from the winter 2018 campaign, and is open along strike and down dip. The new 3D model will improve targeting of additional resources in subsequent drill campaigns and forms the foundation for an updated resource estimate.

New 3D modelbased onhistorical and newexploration results and re-interpretation of the existing and new mineralised envelopes, highlights numerous zones of higher-grade mineralisationthroughout the 6km strike length of the Douay deposit (see Figures 1, 2)

The down-plunge continuity of higher-grade zones has to-date been tested only to shallow depth – the average drill-hole depth at Douay is only ~230m vertical – providing excellent potential for resource expansion to depth (Fig. 2)

Additional mineralisation controls and orientations are related to the morphology of more local structures, syenite intrusions and their contacts

Matthew Hornor, Maple Gold’s President and CEO, commented:“Having a more thorough set of structural interpretations and a new 3D geological model establishes a foundation more in line with the standards of a major gold company and marks an important internal milestone for our technical team.”

Fred Speidel, VP, Exploration, added: “These new products have strongly encouraged us to pursue down-plunge extensions of higher-grade zones that continue below the current average depth of drilling at Douay. They will also allow us to more accurately target these higher grade zones in our subsequent drill programs.”

Additional updates pertaining to the new 3D model, pending resource estimate update and new priority drill targets will be provided shortly.

38,5kg doré were produced at the 1st pour (1,028.91oz of gold) and 78kg of doré (1,981.3oz gold) was produced in December 2018, resulting in total 2018 production of 116.5kg of doré (3,010.2 oz of gold). To date, production in 2019 is 39.7kg of doré (1,090oz).

Processing operations were shut down for planned maintenance. Certain parts of the mill liners were unavailable at start up, however it was decided to press ahead and produce gold. This decision was made to improve cash flow and a maintenance shutdown was planned accordingly. Gold sales provided $5,172,323 of additional cash.

The plant shut down ran from Tuesday 8th January 2019 to Monday 14th January 2019. During the shutdown 60,000 tonnes of high-grade ore was stockpiled.

Michael Hepworth, President and CEO of Nordic said: “The team at the mine has done an excellent job of restarting the mine. We now need to work towards building a profitable business. The next few months will be critical as we ramp up production. As with any mine start up there are many adjustments required to optimise performance and it will be several months before we reach optimal performance.”

Nordic also announced the resignation of David Forest as a director. Mr Forest resigned so as to avoid potential conflicts with other activities. The company thanks him for his service to the company and wishes him well in future endeavors.

Caledonia Mining Corporation Plc (“Caledonia” or the “Company” – http://www.commodity-tv.net/c/search_adv/?v=298338) announces gold production from the Blanket Mine (“Blanket”) in Zimbabwe for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2018. All production numbers are expressed on a 100 per cent basis and are based on mine production data and are therefore subject to adjustment following final assay at the refiners.

Approximately 14,952 ounces of gold were produced during the quarter ended December 31, 2018 (the “Quarter”), 7 per cent higher than the previous quarter (“Q3 2018”). Total gold production for the year to December 31, 2018 was approximately 54,512 ounces, which is in line with 2018 production guidance which was a range of 54,000 to 56,000 ounces. Caledonia advises investors that gold production for 2019 is expected to be between 53,000 and 56,000 ounces.

Caledonia remains on track to achieve production of approximately 80,000 ounces of gold per annum from 2021 following completion of the Central Shaft. The Central Shaft is currently at a depth of 1,150 meters and will be sunk to a depth of 1,204 meters. It is anticipated that shaft sinking will be completed towards the middle of 2019 after which the shaft will be equipped and commissioned.

Following an increase in exploration activity at Blanket, since early 2015 Caledonia has announced 7 successive increases in the resource base as a result of which Blanket’s life of mine has been extended from 6 years as at the end of 2014, to 14 years as at the end of 2018. Exploration continues at Blanket with the objective of further extending Blanket’s life of mine.

Caledonia also advises that it has entered into gold price hedging contracts for the 5 months from February 2019 until June 2019 for 22,500 ounces of production through the purchase of put options with a strike price of $1,250 per ounce. The hedge will ensure that Caledonia receive a minimum price of $1,250 per ounce of gold for the duration of the contracts whilst maintaining full upside participation.

Caledonia expects to release its results for the year to December 31, 2018 on or about March 20, 2019.

“We are pleased to see consistent production performance from Blanket in the fourth quarter of 2018 to deliver 14,952 ounces for the quarter and 54,512 ounces for the full year. Until the Central Shaft has been commissioned in 2021, production from Blanket is expected to remain at broadly the same level as we achieved in 2017 and 2018. We therefore expect to produce between 53,000 and 56,000 ounces in 2019. Blanket finished 2018 with adequate mining and development infrastructure in place to deliver on this target and we have made a good start to 2019.

“Completion of the Central Shaft is the key to Blanket achieving its planned production of approximately 80,000 ounces of gold per annum from 2021 onwards. I expect that sinking work at Central Shaft will be completed by mid-year after which we will start to equip the shaft.

“This part of the Central Shaft project is relatively capital intensive. In light of our significant capital expenditure commitments, we believe it is prudent to take advantage of the recent strengthening of the gold price and we have therefore secured a minimum received gold price of $1,250 per ounce for the 5 months to June 2019 whilst maintaining full upside exposure to the gold price through a cost-effective option structure. The Central Shaft project is in the final 18 months of construction; we expect capital investment on this project to be lower in the second half of 2019 and to reduce further in 2020 as it nears completion. Caledonia will continue to monitor the gold price in conjunction with our projected cash position and review our hedging strategy as appropriate.”

Copper Mountain Mining Corporation(TSX:CMMC | ASX:C6C) (“Copper Mountain” or the “Company” – http://www.commodity-tv.net/c/search_adv/?v=298551) announces Q4 and full year 2018 production results for its Copper Mountain mine, located in southern British Columbia. The Company also announces three-year production guidance for 2019 to 2021. All results are reported on a 100% basis.

“We are pleased to finish 2018 strong, achieving guidance across all metrics,” said Copper Mountain’s President and CEO, Gil Clausen. “As we guided, the fourth quarter was our strongest production quarter. The Copper Mountain mine continues to operate predictably and reliably and in line with plan.”

Mr. Clausen added, “We expect production in 2019 to be slightly lower than 2018, but as we move forward, production levels are expected to increase materially. We are also currently advancing our technical work to bring the New Ingerbelle Mineral Resources into Mineral Reserves and integrate those reserves into a new life of mine plan technical report for the Copper Mountain Mine. We are well advanced on this work and on track to deliver the results in the first quarter of 2019. The integrated life of mine plan results are not included in our current three-year guidance, and have the potential to add significant production value to Copper Mountain.”

Q4 and 2018 Production Results

The Copper Mountain mine produced 78.85 million pounds of copper for the full year of 2018, achieving production guidance of 76 to 84 million pounds of copper. Copper equivalent production for 2018 was 92.4 million pounds, which includes 28,250 ounces of gold and 273,910 of silver. Mill throughput averaged approximately 40 ktpd for the year with copper recovery of 80% and average feed grade of 0.31% Cu. Open pit mining averaged 204 ktpd in 2018.

Copper production for the fourth quarter 2018 was the strongest quarter in 2018, as planned. Production was 20.63 million pounds of copper, 8,125 ounces of gold and 62,710 ounces of silver for a total of 24.5 million pounds of copper equivalent. Mill throughput averaged over 42,097 tonnes per day, with copper recovery of 81% and average feed grade of 0.30% copper. Open pit mining averaged 214 ktpd in the fourth quarter of 2018.

2019-2021 Guidance

Production for the Copper Mountain mine for the next three years is planned as follows:

The Company expects production in 2019 to be between 72 and 80 million pounds of copper, with midpoint slightly lower than 2018 as a result of slightly lower grade mined. Mined grade recovers strongly in the later years, with production expected to be between 86 to 95 million pounds in 2020 and 81 to 89 million pounds of copper in 2021. The three year production guidance does not include any production from the New Ingerbelle pit. The Company intends to deliver a Technical Report for an integrated Copper Mountain mine production plan, including the New Ingerbelle pit, in the first quarter of 2019.

At the Betty Ford target, BETFRDRAB18-002 returned 1.08 g/t Au over 50.29m from 4.57m depth, including 2.24 g/t Au over 9.41m from 19.81m depth with the top 25.91m of the hole showing oxidized mineralization and additional shallow mineralization encountered in other holes along trend.

At Betty White target, gold mineralization was intersected in every hole with individual results ranging from trace to 3.61 g/t Au.

The Betty property is contiguous to the Coffee project owned by Goldcorp and hosted in the same regional structure, with very limited drill testing performed on the Betty property to date.

Additional results from the JP Ross and White Gold properties are in progress and will be announced in due course.

“The discovery on the Betty Ford target is a very significant finding, intersecting over 50 meters of near surface gold mineralization at grades comparable to the adjacent Coffee project, along trend and with structural similarities. We are also very encouraged with the discovery of gold mineralization encountered on other targets across the Betty property which indicates the presence of a broader gold system,” stated Jodie Gibson, VP Exploration. “The Betty property remains underexplored and we believe that this preliminary shallow drill program has just scratched the surface of the mineral potential along the very prospective Coffee Creek fault. Furthermore, this marks the fourth new discovery by our team this season, further increasing confidence in our exploration methodology and providing greater understanding of the regional geology and the prospects for additional discoveries. We look forward to applying our effective and efficient exploration techniques across our land package which now totals over a million acres in the White Gold District.”

Betty Property

The Betty Property is located 58km SW of the Golden Saddle deposit and 62km SSW of the Vertigo discovery along the continuation of the Coffee Creek fault. 145km SW of Dawson City, the property is contiguous to both Goldcorp’s Coffee and Western Copper and Gold’s Casino properties to the east. The property consists of a 12km trend of anomalous gold in soils (trace to 7,288 ppb Au) associated with both intrusion-related and structurally controlled style gold targets. Historic RC drilling from the property include results(1) of 7.1 g/t Au and 209 g/t Ag over 13.7m from hole BETR12-022, 29.8 g/t Au over 3.1m from hole BETR12-012, and 1.5 g/t Au over 21.3m from hole BETR12-007.

2018 Exploration

The 2018 drill program on the Betty property consisted of 1,827m drilled over 28 holes on 6 target areas. Additional exploration work included the collection of 916 soil samples, 103km2 of LiDAR surveys and geologic mapping and prospecting. Results ranged from trace to 4.59 g/t Au, with the most significant results encountered on the Ford and White target areas.

Ford Target

The Ford target is located in the centre of the Betty property, near the crest of an E-W oriented ridge and consists of a 950m x 200m zone of strongly anomalous gold in soils ranging from trace to 1,962 ppb Au. Drilling on the Ford target consisted of 504m of shallow (<100m) RAB drilling over 6 holes covering a 220m x 160m area within the central portion of the soil anomaly and was designed to follow up on a series of interpreted E-W trending structures in the area. The most significant results were returned from the southern end of the anomaly in drill holes BETFRDRAB18-001 to 003.

BETFRDRAB18-001 – Az: 180, Dip: -60o, Depth: 100.58m

BETFRDRAB18-001 was the eastern most hole drilled in the area and returned 24.39m of 0.94 g/t Au from 19.81m depth; including 10.67m of 1.26 g/t from 19.81m depth. The hole was drilled based on an interpreted E-W oriented structure in the area based on soil geochemistry and historic geophysical surveys.

BETFRDRAB18-002 – Az: 180, Dip: -60o, Depth: 100.58m

BETFRDRAB18-002 was drilled 103m to the west of BETFRDRAB18-001 and was targeting the same interpreted structure. The hole returned 50.29m of 1.08 g/t Au from 4.57m depth; including 19.81m of 1.63 g/t Au from 10.67m depth.

BETFRDRAB18-003 – Az: 000, Dip: -60o, Depth: 100.58m

BETFRDRAB18-003 was drilled to the north from the same drill site as BETFRDRAB18-002. The hole appears to have intersected the edge of the mineralized zone intersected in holes 001 & 002 above, returning 13.72m of 0.75 g/t Au from surface.

Mineralization in all three holes consists of strongly quartz-sericite altered biotite gneiss with quartz veining and is strongly oxidized to approximately 26m depth; transitioning to disseminated pyrite at depth. The mineralization is currently interpreted to occur along an E-SE trending, steeply dipping, structure that is open along strike in both directions and at depth. Individual assays from the Ford ranged from trace to 4.59 g/t Au, and is “gold only” with no significant geochemical associations.

White Target

The White target is located approximately 730m downhill to the south of the Ford target and consists of a 150m x 2,000m, NE trending zone of strongly anomalous gold in soils ranging from trace to 1,266 ppb Au. Drilling on the White target consisted of 605m of shallow (<100m) RAB drilling over 7 holes covering 670m of strike length within the central portion of the soil anomaly. Anomalous gold mineralization was intersected in every hole with individual results ranging from trace to 3.61 g/t Au.

The mineralization is hosted within quartz-biotite schist and is associated with a NE-SW trending, steeply south dipping, fault zone and adjacent fractures interpreted as a splay of the Coffee Creek Fault; located 800m to the north. Individual structures are associated with silicification, brecciation, and minor quartz veining within a broader halo of pervasive sericite alteration. The gold mineralization correlates with strongly elevated arsenic and antimony; has been traced from surface to 90m depth; and is open along strike and at depth. Strong oxidation is noted up to 50m depth, with partial oxidation extending to over 90m depth.

About White Gold Corp.

The Company owns a portfolio of 21,218 quartz claims across 34 properties covering over 423,000 hectares representing over 40% of the Yukon’s White Gold District. The Company’s flagship White Gold property has a mineral resource of 960,970 ounces Indicated at 2.43 g/t gold and 282,490 ounces Inferred at 1.70 g/t gold as set forth in the technical report entitled “Independent Technical Report for the White Gold Project, Dawson Range, Yukon, Canada”, dated March 5, 2018, filed under the Company’s profile on SEDAR. Mineralization on the Golden Saddle and Arc is also known to extend beyond the limits of the current resource estimate.

All GT Probe, RAB, RC, and diamond core samples were prepared using procedure PRP70-250 (crush, split and pulverize 250 g to 200 mesh) and analyzed by method FA430 (30g fire assay with AAS finish) and AQ200 (0.5g, aqua regia digestion and ICP-MS analysis). Samples containing >10g/t Au were reanalyzed using method FA530 (30g Fire Assay with gravimetric finish). Metallic-screen analysis may also be utilized if coarse gold mineralization is encounter (FS600).

The work was completed using industry standard procedures, including a quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) program consisting of the regular insertion of certified standards and blanks into the sample stream. The qualified person detected no significant QA/QC issues during review of the data.

White Gold Corp. (TSX.V: WGO, OTC – Nasdaq Intl: WHGOF, FRA: 29W) (the "Company) is pleased to announce additional Reverse Circulation (“RC”) drill results and trenching results from the Vertigo target on the JP Ross property, Yukon, Canada. These results included a significant extension of the discovery Reverse-Air-Blast (“RAB”) drill hole which extended the mineralization at depth and encountered a deeper zone of high-grade gold. The trenching performed further defined the mineralization at Vertigo and will allow the previously identified gold zones to be extrapolated to additional drill targets.

JPRVERRC18-013 returned 18.59 g/t Au and 188.8 g/t Ag over 6.10m from 24.38m depth, including 59.5 g/t Au and 439 g/t Ag over 1.52m from 27.43m depth. The hole also encountered an additional zone of mineralization at 44.2m depth, returning 6.82 g/t Au over 4.57m, including 18.5 g/t Au over 1.52m from 44.2m depth. Drilled as a continuation of previously announced RAB hole JPRVERRAB18-0014, the overall intercept is 22.47 g/t Au over 30.46m from surface with individual samples ranging from 2.00 to 60.4 g/t Au and trace to 388 g/t Ag.

3 trenches completed, each encountering significant mineralization, including trench JPRVERTR18-002 which returned results of 66.39 g/t Au and 302 g/t Ag over 5m, including 109.93 g/t Au and 486.4 g/t Ag over 3m.

Trenching has identified a continuous body of high-grade mineralization that has been traced over 55m strike length which extends to a minimum of 30m depth based on drill testing conducted. This structure is one of at least 12 mineralized structures identified on the Vertigo target to date within a 1,500m x 650m target area.

Additional drilling, prospecting and soil sampling has also been conducted along the 14km structural trend that hosts the Vertigo discovery with the goal of identifying similar high-grade gold mineralization. Results for this exploration work will be released in due course.

“Spectacularly high-grade gold values are consistently being obtained from the Vertigo Trend and these trench results confirm our model of strong structural control. We have successfully defined the trend and dip of the gold-bearing zones only a few months after initial discovery. These results provide further understanding of the Vertigo and show that the mineralization is more extensive than previously understood.” stated Rob Carpenter, Director of the Company. “The trenching has given us key insights into the direction and orientation of the high-grade mineralization which we have leveraged to complete prospecting work outside of the main target area and we look forward to presenting these results in due course. Our 2019 program will aim to extend the geometry of these shallow gold zones with our ultimate goal being to illustrate the continuity of grade and trend. The scale and footprint of the Vertigo zones and alteration haloes suggest the system may represent the most robust gold system discovered to date in the White Gold District.”

Extension of Discovery Drill Hole

Discovery hole JPRVERRAB18-014 intersected 23.44 g/t Au and 144.75 g/t Ag over 24.38m from surface, ending in mineralization and was extended with an RC drill to 79.25m. JPRVERRC18-013 (Az: 180, Dip: -60, Depth: 24.38 – 71.63) was drilled as the continuation of previously announced RAB hole JPRVERRAB18-014. The hole returned 6.10m of 18.59 g/t Au and 188.80 g/t Ag from 24.38m depth; including 59.5 g/t Au and 439.00 Ag over 1.52m from 27.43m depth. Combined with JPRVERRAB-014 the overall intercept is 22.47 g/t Au and 154.00 g/t Ag over 30.46m from surface with individual 1.52m samples ranging from 2.00 – 60.4 g/t Au.

Additionally, there is a second zone of mineralization within JPRVERRC18-013, returning 6.82 g/t Au and 6.80 g/t Ag over 4.57m from 44.20m depth; including 18.5 g/t Au and 12.90 g/t Ag over 1.52m from 44.20m depth. A summary table of holes RAB14/RC13 is presented below:

Interpretation of the results is ongoing and there is not currently enough information to estimate true thickness of the mineralized zones.

Trenching Results

A program consisting of 3 trenches covering 63m was conducted on the Vertigo to follow up on near surface, high-grade gold mineralization intersected in previously reported RAB (JPRVERRAB18-014) and RC (JPRVERRC18-006) drill holes. All the trenches were excavated to bedrock using a low impact, heliportable, excavator. Bedrock depths ranged from approximately 1 – 1.5m depth, and continuous 1m channel samples were collected from bedrock at the bottom of the trenches. Individual assays for trench samples ranged from trace to 157.7 g/t Au and from trace to 718 g/t Ag. Highlights are summarized below:

Mineralization within the trenches consists of a series of lode style quartz veins, up to 1m thick, with disseminated to massive arsenopyrite-galena-pyrite and, locally, visible gold. These occur within a broader zone of brecciation and strong sericite alteration over 5-7m thickness and form a continuous body of high-grade mineralization that has been traced over 55m strike length and to minimum of 30m depth in RAB/RC drilling conducted in the area. Additional, subparallel zones of fracture -controlled mineralization, quartz veining, and/or brecciation extend up to 30m beyond the “high-grade core.” Overall, the mineralization is interpreted to occur along a NW striking, steeply south dipping structural zone that is open along both strike and dip. This structure is one of at least 12 mineralized structures identified on the Vertigo to date within a 1,500m x 650m WNW trending area and additional trenching and follow up diamond drilling will be conducted across all known target structures in 2019.

JPRVERTR18-001:

JPRVERTR18-001 is located 5m west of JPRVERRAB18-014 and its continuation RC18-013, and is oriented to the south. The trench was 12m in length and returned 16.94 g/t Au and 67.9 g/t Ag over 7m from 1m down the trench; including 23.29 g/t Au and 113.7 g/t Ag from 2m down the trench.

JPRVERTR18-002:

JPRVERTR18-002 is located 6m east of Trench 1 and oriented to the south. The trench was 22m in length and returned 66.39 g/t Au and 302 g/t Ag over 5m from 4m down the trench; including a 3m core of 109.93 g/t Au and 486.4 g/t Ag from 5m down the trench. An additional zone of mineralization was also intersected 11m south of the upper intercept and returned 50.5 g/t Au and 80.6 g/t Ag over 1m from 20m down the trench.

JPRVERTR18-003:

JPRVERTR18-003 is located approximately 40m to the southeast of JPRVERTR18-003 and oriented to the south. The trench was 29m in length and returned 20.79 g/t Au and 107.1 g/t Ag over 8m from 15m down the trench; including 32.28 g/t Au and 157 g/t Ag over 5m from 18m down the trench. An additional zone of mineralization was also intersected 9m south of the upper intercept returning 7.05 g/t Au and 48.9 g/t Ag over 2m from 27m down the trench.

Vertigo Target – JP Ross Property

The Vertigo Target is on the JP Ross property which is comprised of 2,850 quartz claims covering over 57,000 hectares with at least 14 known target areas and numerous placer gold bearing creeks. Previously announced drill results on the Vertigo target range from trace to 56.25 g/t Au over 3.05m within a broader intercept of 17.34 g/t Au over 10.67m from 3.05m depth (JPRVERRAB18-001); 45.00 g/t Au over 3.05m from 1.52m depth, within a broader intercept of 9.65 g/t Au over 15.24m (JPRVERRAB18-011); and 23.44 g/t Au over 24.37m (JPRVERRAB18-014). Additional exploration in the area also encountered multiple high-grade grab samples including 139.9 g/t, 135.6 g/t and 132.9g/t Au defining a strike length of approximately 1.5km on the Vertigo target along a 12km mineralized trend. The Vertigo Target is located approximately 25km north of the Company’s flagship White Gold property and is within 2km of an existing road accessible from Dawson City. Recently staked and acquired claims adjacent to the property are situated within a prolific placer mining camp where coarse placer gold is common.

To date, at least 12 mineralized structures are recognized on the Vertigo target over a 1,500m x 650m area, and consist of W-NW trending, steeply dipping zones of quartz veining, brecciation, and fracture-controlled mineralization with disseminated to vein-controlled pyrite-arsenopyrite-galena and, locally, visible gold mineralization. Drill testing to date has validated the mineralization over 500m of strike length which is open along strike and at depth.

About White Gold Corp.

The Company owns a portfolio of 21,218 quartz claims across 34 properties covering over 423,000 hectares representing over 40% of the Yukon’s White Gold District. The Company’s flagship White Gold property has a mineral resource of 960,970 ounces Indicated at 2.43 g/t gold and 282,490 ounces Inferred at 1.70 g/t gold as set forth in the technical report entitled “Independent Technical Report for the White Gold Project, Dawson Range, Yukon, Canada”, dated March 5, 2018, filed under the Company’s profile on SEDAR. Mineralization on the Golden Saddle and Arc is also known to extend beyond the limits of the current resource estimate. Regional exploration work has also produced several other prospective targets on the Company’s claim packages which border sizable gold discoveries including the Coffee project owned by Goldcorp Inc.

NORDIC GOLD CORP. (TSX-V: NOR) ("Nordic" or the "Company") today announced the successful completion of the first pour of gold at its wholly owned Laiva Mine near Raahe in Finland. A total of 1,234 ounces of doré was poured.

On October 11, 2018 Laiva received written approval for startup and mining started on August 5, 2018.

The company acquired Laiva Mine in December 2017 for approximately $25 million in cash and shares. Since that time the company has completed an updated NI-43-101 Resource calculation, completed a PEA, recruited an experienced management team to operate the mine, completed all necessary permitting and approvals to operate. The company has also completed all the necessary plant maintenance and recommissioning.

Michael Hepworth, President and Chief Executive Officer said, “The first pour is a critical but vital step in returning Laiva to commercial production. The last 18 months has been focused on using past production data and learning from this information. Many fixes have been implemented and as we move towards commercial production further improvements will be implemented to ensure appropriate economics and efficiencies. The team at the mine has done an outstanding job of getting back to production in an incredibly short timeframe. From care and maintenance to production in around 11 months is something everyone can be very proud of.”

Nordic’s first pour of gold was livestreamed at 10.20am EST on 30th November 2018. Interested investors can watch video of this first pour at www.nordic.gold

About the Company

Nordic Gold Corp. is a junior mining company with a near production gold mine in Finland. The Laiva Gold Mine is fully built, fully permitted and financed to production via a gold forward sale agreement. Production is scheduled to start in the 4th quarter of 2018.

A recently released PEA was conducted by John T. Boyd Company of Denver, Colorado (“Boyd”).

Other Highlights include:

Pre-production capex $7,115,103.

75,981 ounces of average annual gold production at a cash cost of $863 per ounce and AISC of $974 per ounce.

Life of Mine production of 456,600 ounces gold over a 6-year mine life.

The PEA is preliminary in nature and includes Inferred Mineral Resources that are too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as Mineral Reserves. There is no certainty that PEA results will be realized. Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.

As previously announced, when Nordic acquired the Laiva Gold Mine, the Company was granted, €131,716,248 in tax loss provisions which may be used to offset future taxes should taxable income be earned in Finland prior to expiration of the tax loss carry forwards. The tax loss provisions expire between 2020 and 2028 (see the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2018 for detailed disclosure of the expiration schedule). The recognition of the tax loss carry-forwards has a material impact on the economic assessment of the Laiva Gold Mine project and are contingent upon the Company achieving taxable net income per Finnish tax laws.

Nordic Gold’s management has identified several opportunities outside of the scope of the mine plan studied in the PEA, which could further improve the mine plan and the economics of the project. Most important of these being the three additional 100% owned exploration properties close to the mine. Nordic is currently conducting magnetic surveys on all of the company’s properties. All three properties are fully permitted for exploration.

The report also identifies near mine targets for exploration as potentially 3.2 to 5.1 million tonnes grading at 1.25 to 1.45 grams per tonne. This estimate is based on drilling beneath the south and north pits at depths up to 250 m below surface and is open at depth. Further infill and step-out drilling is required to test these targets. Grade estimate is based on assuming the same weighted average grade of the measured, indicated and inferred resources reported in the Boyd report. The report also identifies a target in the eastern extension as potentially 0.85 to 3.2 million tonnes grading 1.25 to 1.45 grams per tonne. This estimate is based on three to five mineralized zones of 200 m to 300 m length, 50 m to 75 m vertical extent and 10 m width. Drilling has identified multiple mineralized zones up to 750 m from the north pit that extend to depths of at least 100 m. Grade estimate is based on intercepts of reconnaissance drilling and the weighted average grade of the measured, indicated and inferred resources reported in the Boyd report. The exploration targets are conceptual in nature as there has been insufficient exploration work to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. The economics of the PEA do not include these exploration opportunities.

The mineral resources presented here were estimated using a block model with a block size of 9 m by 9 m by 9 m sub-blocked to a minimum of 3 m by 3 m by 3 m using ID3 methods for grade estimation. All mineral resources are reported using an open pit gold cut-off of 0.40 g/t Au.

Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.

The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resource could be expected to be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration.

Other than an economic pit shell no attempt has been made to apply a mining dilution or a mining recovery factor.

Mineral resources were estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”), CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definition and Guidelines prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by CIM Council.

Numbers may not add due to rounding.

Disclosure: Companies typically rely on comprehensive feasibility reports on mineral reserve estimates to reduce the risks and uncertainties associated with a production decision. The Company has not completed a feasibility study on, nor has the Company completed a mineral reserve estimate at the Laiva Gold Mine and as such the financial and technical viability is higher risk than if this work had been completed. Based on historical engineering and geological reports, historical production data and current engineering work completed or in process by Nordic Gold, the Company intends to move forward with the development of this asset. The Company further cautions that it is not basing any production decision on a feasibility study of mineral reserves demonstrating economic and technical viability, and therefore there is a much greater risk of failure associated with its production decision. In addition, readers are cautioned that inferred mineral resources are considered too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves.

Nordic Gold currently has one highly prospective property in British Colombia. The Star Property is currently operated under a Joint Venture agreement between Nordic (49%) and Prosper Gold. (TSX-V: PGX) (51%).

White Gold Corp. (TSX.V: WGO, OTC – Nasdaq Intl: WHGOF, FRA: 29W) (the "Company” – http://www.commodity-tv.net/c/search_adv/?v=298556) is pleased to announce additional Rotary-Air-Blast (“RAB”) and Reverse Circulation (“RC”) drill results from the Vertigo target on the JP Ross property, Yukon, Canada. Assays for 3 additional RAB holes and 11 additional RC holes have been received, returning additional high-grade mineralization in multiple zones. The RC drilling further validated the previously announced RAB drill results and identified new zones of high-grade gold mineralization along strike and at depth, which remain open in all directions. Drilling and other geological testing has also been conducted along the 14km structural trend that hosts the Vertigo and other similar targets.

JPRVERRC18-006 returned 3.21 g/t Au over 82.3m, including 31.4 g/t Au over 6.1m, including 103.9 g/t Au and 400.0 g/t Ag over 1.52m from surface and three deeper mineralized zones including 4.92 g/t Au over 6.1m from 36.58m.

JPRVERRC18-009 returned 14.23 g/t Au over 6.1m, including 38.56 g/t Au over 3.05m from surface and 6.1 g/t Au over 4.57m from 41.5m. This is the most eastern drill intercept of the gold zones on the Vertigo target and mineralization remains open along strike and at depth.

JPRVERRC18-003 returned 30.7 g/t Au over 1.52m from surface and 3.98 g/t Au over 7.62m, including 7.14 g/t Au over 3.05m from 65.53m.

A total of 17 RAB holes and 21 RC holes have been drilled on the Vertigo target, increasing strike length of high-grade mineralization to over 305m x 250m. Additional assay results are pending for RC holes within and beyond this strike length, within the newly expanded target area.

The target area of mineralization and alteration has been expanded to a footprint of 1,500m x 650m, hosting at least 12 individual zones and remains open in all directions.

Additional prospecting and geological evaluation have been conducted along the 14km trend which hosts the Vertigo discovery with the goal of identifying similar gold zones nearby. Assays are pending and will be released in due course.

“We are continuing to encounter high-grade gold mineralization at or near surface on the Vertigo target and have now encountered multiple additional high-grade zones at depth and along strike,” stated Jodie Gibson, VP Exploration. “These new results have provided further understanding of the geological model and show the potential for a large high-grade mineralized system.”

Drill Results

A total of 917.45m of RAB drilling over 17 holes was completed on the Vertigo target. Several of the RAB holes failed to reach full depth due to difficult ground conditions adjacent to or within the mineralized zones. The RAB was converted to an RC system to maximize recoveries and 1,491 m of RC has been drilled over 21 holes. Some of the RC holes are within close proximity to previously reported RAB holes to test for mineralization at depth beyond the limits of the RAB drilling, up to 100m depth, and to evaluate the geometry of the mineralized structures. The remainder step out along strike and on additional structures along the Vertigo target.

Results for 3 additional RAB holes and 11 RC holes from the Vertigo target have been received and are discussed below. Individual assays for the reported holes range from trace to 103.9 g/t Au and trace to 400.0 g/t Ag; with significant zones of alteration and anomalous mineralization noted in all holes except one. The most significant results were obtained from holes JPRVERRC18-001, JPRVERRC18-003, JPRVERRC18-06, JPRVERRC18-07 & JPRVERRC18-09.

Interpretation of the results is ongoing and there is not currently enough information to estimate true thickness of the mineralized zones.

JPRVERRC18-001 – Az: 000, Dip: -60o, Depth: 76.2m

JPRVERRC18-001 is located 109m to the SE of RAB hole JPRVERRAB-014. The hole returned a 15.24m intercept of 1.01 g/t Au from 39.62m depth. Anomalous (>100 ppb Au) zones of mineralization occur above and below the reported intercept. Additionally, this is the western most hole received to date and expands the drilled footprint of mineralization to 305m strike length.

JPRVERRC18-003 – Az: 000, Dip: -60o, Depth: 96.01m

JPRVERRC18-003 was drilled to the north from the same location as RAB hole’s JPRVERRAB18-001 & 002. The hole returned two significant intercepts including 1.52m of 30.7 g/t Au from 19.81m depth, and 7.62m of 3.98 g/t Au from 65.53m depth; including 3.05m of 7.14 g/t Au from 65.53m depth.

JPRVERRC18-006 – Az: 180, Dip: -60o, Depth: 86.87m

JPRVERRC18-006 was collared 5m to the south of JPRVERRAB18-014/RC-013 and intersected 4 zones of mineralization with additional mineralization distributed between the zones. This includes a 6.10m zone from surface averaging 31.4 g/t Au, including 1.52m of 103.9 g/t Au from surface; a 9.14m zone averaging 2.02 g/t Au from 13.72m depth; a 6.10m zone averaging 4.92 g/t Au from 36.58m depth, including 1.52m of 14.4 g/t Au from 39.62m depth; and a 3.05m zone averaging 2.92 g/t Au from 70.10m depth. Combined, the zones average 3.21 g/t Au over 82.30m from surface. Excluding the upper 1.52m of 103.9 g/t Au; the combined intercept averages 80.77m of 1.3 g/t Au from 1.52m depth.

JPRVERRC18-007 – Az: 180, Dip: -60o, Depth: 88.39m

JPRVERRC18-07 is located 23m to the north and drilled subparallel to JPRVERRAB18-014. The hole returned two significant intercepts including 1.52m of 6.88 g/t Au from 10.67m depth, and 1.52m of 9.40 g/t Au from 30.48m depth.

JPRVERRC18-009 – Az: 180, Dip: -60o, Depth: 91.44

JPRVERRC18-009 was drilled 8m to the NE of previously reported hole JPRVERRAB18-011 and was drilled to evaluate the area at depth. The hole returned 3 zones of mineralization with additional mineralization distributed between the zones. Results include a 6.10m zone of 14.23 g/t Au from surface, including 3.05m of 38.56 g/t Au from surface; a 3.05m zone of 2.11 g/t Au from 15.24m depth; and a 4.57m zone of 6.10 g/t Au from 41.15m depth, including 1.52m of 14.80 g/t Au from 41.15m depth. Combined, the zones average 2.70 g/t Au over 45.72m from surface.

Vertigo Target – JP Ross Property

The Vertigo Target is on the JP Ross property which is comprised of 2,850 quartz claims covering over 57,000 hectares with at least 14 known target areas and numerous placer gold bearing creeks. Previously announced drill results on the Vertigo target range from trace to 56.25 g/t Au over 3.05m within a broader intercept of 17.34 g/t Au over 10.67m from 3.05m depth (JPRVERRAB18-001); 45.00 g/t Au over 3.05m from 1.52m depth, within a broader intercept of 9.65 g/t Au over 15.24m (JPRVERRAB18-011); and 23.44 g/t Au over 24.37m (JPRVERRAB18-014). Additional exploration in the area also encountered multiple high-grade grab samples including 139.9 g/t, 135.6 g/t and 132.9g/t Au defining a strike length of approximately 1.5km on the Vertigo target along a 12km mineralized trend. The Vertigo Target is located approximately 25km north of the Company’s flagship White Gold property and is within 2km of an existing road accessible from Dawson City. Recently staked and acquired claims adjacent to the property are situated within a prolific placer mining camp where coarse placer gold is common.

To date, at least 12 mineralized structures are recognized on the Vertigo target over a 1500m x 650m area, and consist of W-NW trending, steeply dipping zones of quartz veining, brecciation, and fracture-controlled mineralization with disseminated to vein-controlled pyrite-arsenopyrite-galena and, locally, visible gold mineralization. Drill testing to date has validated the mineralization over 305m of strike length and it is open along strike and at depth.
